Carbon Neutral Hotels

News from the Indie that only 4 per cent of British holidaymakers would choose to book a five-star hotel over a four-star establishment which is sustainably run.

Just like any other business, there are factors such as efficient lighting and heating, renewable energy, or community support and involvement. But, since they are hotels, you would also include home-grown vegetables, hire bikes, fair-trade sugar for your fair trade coffee, and a local and organic full English.

Yorkshire has a scheme to encourage hotels, B&Bs and cafes to source more regional produce called the "Deliciouslyorkshire Breakfast" where 5 ingredients or more have to be regionally sourced.
